I can now say every EV-Go at any location I have ever used, is now out of service.
Are there any workings ones? Most have been out of service for at least two years of the ones I have used in CA & NV. All for at least one year.

Have they even put one Magic Dock anywhere in an area where needed, not within ten miles of some other CCS station?
Here in NV, there are a lot of EVs, but not many places to charge them on the road. Not counting the countless broken ones that have been out of service for years.
Not even one...
Well, now they are saying we are up to seven.
"Biden promised to install thousands of EV charging stations. Only 7 have been built."
But that is probably faster than most of the "coming soons" on Plugshare.
Anything to do with fast-chargers, other than perhaps the charging, is rather slow...
New buildings in CA must go by these laws WRT EV Charging.
BTW, I have charged at several places in Sacramento over the years. I was always the only one charging up wherever I went in Sacramento.

IMAO, this is a totally useless site for more chargers. Countless others within a mile or so.
I wish they would take half of the chargers in Sacramento and spread them out more in the middle of nowhere, CA.

IOW, we will have less chargers from EV-GO. FWIW, 50KW is more than I need. 99% of my fast charging is with a couple of Energica motorcycles that can charge as high as 25 KW.
So this EV-GO thing is bad news for me. And it is taking forever for them to start any work out here in the west. Many...
Yeah, that is what I figured. It just makes it so no adapter is necessary.
It proves my charging ECU replacement for "ccs adapter support" is working well.
It's now been tested on all types of chargers.
-Don- Reno, NV
This place is expensive even for CA. Now is 66 cents per KWH.
One charger there has a NACS plug (62KW).
3 CHAdeMO (62.5 KW)--one of them has a NACS in place of the CHAdeMO.
4 CCS (62 KW)
And two J-1772 plugs (6.5 KW max) on one station.

Here is what EV-Go is saying.
If it's true, it sure is a slow process. All I have seen in the last year is EV-Gos going out of service one after the other--and every one of them I have ever used.

I suppose I could trick it by navigating to a close by Tesla Supercharger and then going for the CCS charge. But not practical as then I would be using the nearby Tesla Supercharger anyway. But I probably could have used such a trick yesterday.
I wish there was a way to manually activate the...
Perhaps, but I was only using a 50KW charger as that was the one with the NACS connector I wanted to try out. I got near the 50KW just before the big drop off at close to 80% SOC.
And their fastest charger there only does 62.5 KW.

They have the AC power off at my Auburn, CA home as they are changing a power pole. Power off for four hours. I figure this would be a good time to charge up my Tesla here in Auburn, CA Bell Target.
I am NOW charging my 2018 Tesla M3 at the Bell CCS Chargepoint with the one NACS connector. Only...
Yes, I am sure that was the case. I did look in the slot after I pulled out the charging plug for the V4 SC and I did think I could have been looking at Magic Dock, but I wasn't sure.
